  External SATA/FW Enclosure recommendations?

  Posted by Paul Huppe on May 23, 2007 at 6:56 pm

  Can anyone recommend anything in the way of a Hot-Swap External Enclosure that has both SATA and Firewire 800?

  I’ll be cutting on a MacBookPro 17′ and want to be able to copy files from/to a desktop FCP (thus the FW800), yet want the speed of SATA for 8bit uncompressed editing (running off a WieBeTech Express34 SATA card).

  Thanks,
  Paul

  Firewire 800 units like the G-Raid 2 and Firewire VR will allow you to edit uncompressed 8 bit just fine.

  Thanks Shane,

  Yeah, that would be the way to go for sure; however I’ll be capturing using the AjA IO Firewire box, so will need to go SATA to free up the connection. I just can’t seem to find a SATA solution that also has a firewire connection.
